Well I'm not sure how well is supported Xv extension on FreeBSD -
as far as I know  XVideo extension for GeForce cards works only
with NVidia drivers and they are released only for Windows & Linux
and I'm not sure if you could simply use this libraries in FreeBSD.

probably yes

you would need really fast computer to be able to use scaled X11 video

so maybe you should install small linux partion (like 400MB with 
just packages needed to run XFree and view your movies in this way)

also you may try mplayer
